AGRICULTURAL.
Devoted to the Interests OF Farmers
and Stockmen.


There are many theories about the
best way to get the greatest yield. One
person says he has adopted.the 1oiiow-
ing plan: IT,.
Furrow the land four or five inches
deep and three feet apart. Cut each
potato lengthwise into four parts, ana
drop the pieces from fifteen to eighteen
inches apart in the row. This method,
he finds, gives more merchantaole po-
tatoes and less small ones than when
more seed is used. The yield is also
nearly double that obtained by plant
ing in hills three feet apart each way.
Another good authority says; "Ihe
crown ewes of the potato are the only
ones which yield vigorous plants; the
| produce of the other eyes is feeble and
unremunerative. If, therefore, pota-
toes are cut for seed they should not
be cut lengthwise, by which the crown
| is divided and eyes of all kinds intro
duced into the seed, but they should
be cut across, the half containing the
crown eyes planted, and the other halt
| used for food"
Some like for this crop deep, sandy
loan, which of course is good, but the
strong, dark lands OF the West do not
produce first class potato, although
the yield is often large. Low, we
lands are not suitable unless drained.
1t is found that the high, sandy soil
will give good crops, but If not rich IN
potash they must be made so with
proper fertilizers. Ashes and salt have
been very successfully used with this
crop.
Potatoes planted in summer for home
use may be mulched with great benefit.
| Covering the surface OF the ground
near the roots enables the soil to retain
its moisture much longer than il not
covered, it checks the evaporation and
also condenses the moisture OF the all
SO that it passes under the material
used for mulching, thus keeping re-
serve stock of moisture for the roots tC
appropriate as needed. Mulching il
not only natures restorer, but its pro
tector also.
| When the potatoes are out OF the
ground the best way to keep them ii
to raise bed nearly foot above the
level of the ground; put the potatoes
on this bed, cover with dirt, and Their
build potato-bin over them to KEEP
off the rain. This is far preferable to
the northern cellar, where the potatoes
and other vegetables lie and rot, gener
ating deadly atmosphere that per
vades the house and is breathed into
the system of all the inmates, and de
